Summary
Tommy Kahnle’s minor league opt-out expired yesterday, and the Red Sox now have 48 hours to decide whether to promote him or risk losing him to another team. The veteran reliever has been dominant in Triple-A, posting a 1.40 ERA with 21 strikeouts and just 11 walks in 19⅓ innings. With Boston’s bullpen struggling—especially on the right side—Kahnle could provide immediate, high-impact relief. At 11 years in the league and with playoff experience, he’s a proven commodity. The Red Sox pursued him for a while; letting him walk now would be a costly mistake. The decision is simple: keep him or watch him leave for another contender.
